| Theater Arts Shoestring Players Spell in the Well Bring your imagination and join The Shoestring Players as they take you on a journey through America, Siberia, the island of Majorca, and Ireland. SPELL IN THE WELL begins your adventure in Majorca with an enchanted prince who is rescued by the princess! Then we travel to Siberia for PAMPALCHE, a hilarious tale of a girl who cleverly out wits a witch to avoid marrying her ogre son. Next we travel to America for THE FIRE BRINGER, a Native American tale of how a young boy wrested fire from the Gods. We end our excursion in Ireland with DANIEL O'ROURKE, the tale of a young man's arduous journey, when all he wants to do is go home!
Allow the Shoestring Players to take you on a wonderful adventure, bringing only your imagination along for the ride. An empty stage is filled with eight lively actors and a percussionist, who transform themselves into castle s, rivers, forests and much more, allowing you to become an active partner in imagining the details. Shoestring allows you to explore all of the possibilities your mind has to offer. Whether it's The Shoestring Players with their performances of international folk tales or Shoestring PLUS with their workshops and residencies, our vision remains the same for young and old; the power of our own imagination is one of the greatest gifts we possess.

"..it was a pleasure to witness such wonderful theater. It was especially important to me to see that "less" is more. Your choice for set (or lack of set), costumes and props reinforce that creativity comes from within. Great energy! This is the best piece of children's theater I've seen in years!" -Eddie Edenfield, Teacher, Memorial Middle School, Skillman, NJ Shoestring PLUS Shoestring PLUS, the educational division of The Shoestring Players, offers workshops in Creative Dramatics and Creative Writing, as well as residencies, for Pre-K through Adult.
